Would you get one? If you've already got one, would you recoommend it to your friends/enemies? Is it worth getting now, or are you waiting for the inevitable unveiling of the iphone 2.0?

Debate, discuss, buy me an iphone.

Any thoughts? I know that some folks wanted to see soda products eliminated all together... but I have to admit that having the option now puts us in a better position to negotiate other non-carbonated, healthy, and good tasting soft drinks.

Where do you get your news? Why? Do you think Fox, CNN, MSNBC, NYtimes, Wall Street Journal, etc. are total bullshit?

I myself find www.realclearpolitics.com to be a great resource to find good editorials and stories on the top headlines. They essentially filter through all the headlines one might find at http://news.google.com and compile a list of links to commentary that is pertinent to the stories of today. There isn't a clear bias on the content that is linked - for every thomas friedman and david brooks article theres a link to oppsoing commentary. They also do a good job of compiling all presidential polls and averaging them out to find out where in fact candidates may stand - you'll be suprised with the findings... they dont mirror the headlines at all.

Additionally, I check out politico.com and thehill.com for washington political news. The journalists on this site camp out all over DC and offer great insight into lesser known but highly important events in capital hill, the white house, and even the court.

Does anyone know of other resources like this? Any good blogs (I dont really read too many other than an occassional peak at Dailykos).]]> Fri, 07 Dec 2007 15:58:00 -0700 http://goucherunderground.com/index.php?showtopic=157 http://goucherunderground.com/index.php?showtopic=264 http://search.cbsnews.com/?source=cbs&q=milenials

They have infact done a fabulous job. But MINT Linux has begun to build off ubuntu's success.

I just installed Mint, and it is fantastic. Everything worked out of the box! Best of all, no virii!

soo, just if any one is interested in going open source, just let me know. I am always around to help!

Also, if you have a good graphics card, you can do some awesome desktop effects. If you thought apple was slick with their expose bullshit.... you gota see some of this stuff.

I have only one book on my list right now and I am hoping to be inspired by some of your own personal choices. Its All's Fair: Love, War and Running for President by Mary Matalin and James Carville. A buddy of mine gave me an autographed copy and said it was a MUST READ... I'll take him at his word.

If I find more things I am reading I will be sure to post them. I reccomend the books I listed in the winter break reading thread to almost everyone. Who Killed Daniel Pearl is a must read if you want to have any sort of idea as to wtf is going on in Pakistan with state links to terrorism - a likely issue to be addressed in the future.]]> Thu, 15 May 2008 17:51:04 -0600 http://goucherunderground.com/index.php?showtopic=262 http://goucherunderground.com/index.php?showtopic=263 http://boombustblog.com/images/stories/wha...256,1,Slide%201]]> Fri, 30 May 2008 21:40:10 -0600 http://goucherunderground.com/index.php?showtopic=263 http://goucherunderground.com/index.php?showtopic=189 I installed (or reinstalled?) the Gnome Network Manager and the PPTP plugin, with apt-get install;
For some reason, there is a bug in the network manager which requires me to enable roaming mode
for my LAN connection, in order to veiw the VPN options (if roaming is disabled, '...manual configuration'
is the only option that appears). When I enabled roaming, I lost my internet connection, but typing "sudo dhclient"
in the terminal seemed to fix this. With roaming enabled, I created a VPN (vpn.goucher.edu), and tried to connect.
I entered my username and password, but after 30 sec. or so I got the error message "Could not start the VPN due
to a connection error". I tried GCADMIN\afaranda as the user name, but that didn't work either.
I was wondering if anybody here was using ubuntu to connect to the goucher network, and has had similar
difficulties, or can think of a solution. I thought maybe there is a setting that I need to change, that is specific to
goucher's system; or maybe that goucher's server does not like roaming mode? Any feedback is
appreciated. !!

Best wishes for the holidays, Hope everyone is enjoying their break!
